The Night Carer

di Jim D. Burns (Autore)

Jim Burns, 2026

Grace Nsubuga accepts an emergency overnight shift at Blackwood House because the generous pay will cover her daughter's school camp. The job seems straightforward: spend the night supporting Leo Vale, an intelligent young man with cerebral palsy who communicates through eye-gaze technology. But from the moment Grace arrives, something feels wrong. Leo's wealthy parents warn her not to believe everything he says. They claim his regular carer, Jess, resigned after stealing medication—but Leo insists Jess would never have abandoned him. As the night deepens, Grace discovers medication records signed in Jess's name after her disappearance. Security cameras follow her movements, doors close without warning and electronic records change before her eyes. Then, at exactly 2:13 a.m., a bloodied woman wearing the same care uniform appears outside the locked gate. It is Jess—and she has only one warning: Don't let them in. When Blackwood House enters security mode, Grace and Leo find themselves trapped inside a home where every camera, phone and doorway can be controlled by someone else. With a car approaching through the storm, Grace must uncover what happened to Jess and expose the secrets hidden within the house before whoever is coming reaches them. The Night Carer is a gripping psychological thriller about surveillance, autonomy and the terrifying consequences of turning systems designed to protect people into instruments of control.
